I work at Northwell Health as the Chief Technologist in the Cath Lab at North Shore Manhasset. I'm responsible for the day to day operations and staffing of the technologists in the lab. We have 25 technologists on our team. One of our roles is scrubbing, monitoring and circulating coronary angiograms and angioplasties. Nassau Community College laid the foundation for my thinking and problem solving abilities. The knowledge passed on to me by the faculty provided me with the expertise necessary to excel in my current position.
While I was at NCC I really enjoyed working with my instructors and patients applying what we learned in class that week. I made lasting friendships with a lot of my fellow students which I still have to this day.
My decision to attend NCC after high school stemmed from a variety of reasons. I had a lack of direction on what career to pursue, and I certainly noted the astronomical tuition costs at the schools that offered me admission. When doing my research, I noticed NCC's commitment towards its students.

I am a first-generation college student and have been paying my way through college. I had previously attended NCC because of its affordability and location. I had such good memories from my first time attending that it made sense to go back to finish my degree. People also recommended Nassau's Surgical Technology program to me because it is one of the best in the area.

NCC was a smart choice for me because I wasn't really sure what my passion was. Nassau gave me a chance to figure it out while not having to carry the financial burden of switching my major should I want to make a change.
